#BLOG - “These Days Past”, Part II | SOL 952
Hello friends,
It's been a while since my last post, so much has changed!
- Forward by Author-
I'm currently deeply involved in publication upstream, working on new illustrations, signature products, and have since relocated into a new studio space. My living situation in flux, I will refer to this lifestyle as increasingly mobile and nomadic in stature. More work has dedicated to completing new images, as always I will refer new followers and continuing alike to visit my website. It is now that I have finally caught up to a backlog of routine posting to all of my main networks typically Facebook, Instagram, Patreon, and Steemit of course. :)
This stream, however, is particularly a personal profile and represents itself as public a persona I can maintain with respect to my profession and my lifelong practice, Art and Illustration. However, if you know me outside of this network, then this would reflect the type of information I'd share to those who have met me [here] collaborated with me, and I've created content independently. That said, I admit I would like to create another profile to house as a repository on the blockchain for the content of my creative art one day. @Artistcraigahamilton on the web is the brand of my original graphic illustrations, signature products, and special publications of my own personal experience and expertise ;)
I guess it would only be appropriate to continue sharing with you all what's happening off-line and in time return to where we left off on-line ;)

Here's my trusty pro courier bicycle, Misty Midnight, my loyal money maker. She's a rain dancer necromancer, rain or shine, day or night, with this bike, I've pedaled myself to over 2000 deliveries with Uber Eats since February 2019. As I breech 3,000 recently with my newer e-bike Hiro, Misty has always been the most effective and practical tool in my self-powered side hustle.

Ya boi's juiced 🚴🏾♂️⚡🌠 -- Look who's back on the road 😎😏
(So, since February 2019, I've invested my time and energy as a day laborer delivery courier for the likes of Uber Eats, Postmates, and Doordash. It has been a life-changing experience for me, in short, the way work is done on these platforms has allowed my lifestyle to balance labor in service of my local neighborhood and time to focus when necessary to further my craft. I'm pushing close to 3k deliveries at the time of publishing this, I aim to continue to invest in both my growing enthusiasm with couriering and interest in e-bikes, cycling, and outdoor sports.)

I hope everyone's safe out there. I want to take this moment to salute to my fellow Americans, brave everyday heroes, men and women together on the front lines of this terrible outbreak, doing all they can to save the lives of others. It is truly a blessing in our work for our lives to save others. So let us all what we can in our part in saving one from this horrible virus.
.
This is my trusty Hîro, my advanced electric motor-powered bicycle. With this machine, I've taken an increase in orders with increased speed and agility. The power of a motor and with the practicality of a bicycle, it can keep up with even the busiest of days. As long as it's not raining :)

And of course, with the present threat that shall not be named, the crisis began at some time mid-March and for once an event that has affected the world. There's no way to explain around it, so I'll give the highlights from my personal feed as the descent into madness began:
Mayor Carlos A. Gimenez of Miami-Dade County came online to post this to Facebook March 6 ·
"Avoid misconceptions and prevent unnecessary panic in your community. The risk of getting Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the U.S. is still currently low; keep these factors in mind when protecting yourself and others."
Then I voted. You all know how that turned out >_>
.
Even so early in the pandemic, food stock shortages were already occurring at the local supermarkets.
.
I stay ready, pilgrim. It's another day out in the field.
.
Now originally this was a HUGE post, but for continuity, I figure it would be best to break up into separate posts, so stay tuned for another set of photos until we catch up in real-time. Until then, thanks for hanging out with me throughout the years, I'm coming back now with more original content than ever as we roll into a new age for crypto!
Bless!
